Monarchist National Party

The Monarchist National Party (PNM) was an Italian conservative-monarchist party that existed from 1946 to 1959. The party was founded in the aftermath of the abolition of the monarchy, and its members were conservatives, liberal-conservatives, conservative-liberals, and nationalists; it was a right-wing competitor to the Christian Democracy party, and it was especially strong in southern Italy. In 1959, the party merged into the Italian Democratic Party of Monarchist Unity.
